I went to see the play Truth Lies Diana, a courageous, visceral play written and performed by John Conway about a writer who obsesses about the death of Diana. Having gained access to information that wasn't made public by the media/government/men in grey (establishment) (which John Conway has), when the jury was put in place to investigate her death, he decides to write a play based on his findings. I identify with this. If you can't tell the truth as truth, call if fiction. I think there's more 'truth' that comes out of Hollywood than does out of government - especially the American one.
John I am reliably informed, has already received a threat from the 'men in grey' asking him to not stage the play. So the ending of the play comes as a double bluff - just in case anything happens to John - especially a car accident - you know who did it!
I've never believed Diana had an accident. I always felt it was establishment that killed her. They got away with it, as Jimmy Saville did, as Piers Morgan did, as Rebekkah Brookes did, as numerous politicians who are paedophiles have, as Bob Diamond has, as …so many have. The play will grow in interest because as more is revealed about the great and good we applaud, vote in, and who deem themselves to be above the law, the richer the play's scripts will become. He mentioned Prince Andrew, Saville and loads of other names that weren't in the original script when he first started the project last year.
The suggestion is that Diana was murdered in the ambulance. The evidence, as it is laid out, is convincing. Hewitt is portrayed as a patsy. The Queen makes several appearances in wells and head scarf. The legal profession, the courtiers and the politicians come across as - no other way of putting it - as slimy fuckers.
The papers who masked the truth are ironically reviewing the play and praising it.
The audience were initially shocked by the evidence, then angry, then depressed by the reality the 'Establishment' has got away with it. I spoke to many at the after production party, many who knew 'Establishment' and indeed had at time been a part of it. They all said the same thing. 'The Establishment can't be broken. If you try, or try to change things, you disappear."
The brave and compassionate people who live in this country are worthy of much better than these manipulative self serving cowards. I understand where Russell Brand is coming from, but he gives no answers. He wants to crack the Establishment but you leave this play trying of thinking of ways of how to do it. Without being killed, blackmailed, discredited, thrown in jail, set up, tortured…. Even abstaining to vote is not the answer.
Perhaps the turmoil nature is in at at the moment, will find a way to deal with they who can't be named. (although in this play, many of them actually are). Tsunami over Houses of Parliament anyone?
